Responsibilities
1. Create a handout & post it on blogger - mayra and amy did this already Pull the outline together for a 1 page handout titled: For complete information about this presentation see:http://hola-libro-wisconsin.blogspot.com/ - This is done
2. Storyboard presentation & add photos - Sheri
3. Write out directions for vendor ordering - Amy (Done) including WAFLT biblio availability(to do)
4. Each person chose 10 books to bring for sharing - take picture of the covers- post them WHERE MAYRA? Can we post them here? (See Mayra's Top Ten). Each one could create a page and do that. I will work on doing mine asap and see if it works.
5. Create a doc. with bibliography of the 10 titles - by Wed. mayra done Amy's done with doc. -need a few more summaries/photos.
Combine all 30 titles & attach to handout doc.-Amy
6. Organize the Internet resources so they are understandable for the blog. - Mayra will work on this.Someone check it to see if I am missing something. I integrated Sherri's links into the sections we chose last Saturday, now it just needs a few details about each link: some have them, some not. I also need to click through every link to make sure it works, then delete all the extra web addresses. Since this will be on the blog, it should all be hyperlinked, not typed.
Mayra, I went to the Internet resources link (on the left). It looks beautiful! I know Shari mentioned maybe including Lectorum. I will bring the Lectorum catalog to the presentation in case anyone wants to browse it.
7. Print 40 copies - of what? Who will? I could print 40 copies of the handout (mayra). Good. I'll (Amy) print the bibliography...whaterver we have together by Friday. i'll work on it Thursday night.
Posting pictures on the blog
I think we can post the pictures of the books on the blog. I don't think we can print them with a handout. I went to the LibraryLaw Blog and found the last comment most useful than the entire copyright law mess described and discussed. Here is (verbatim) what the person posted:
"I'm finding it hard to read this thread without laughing! I work in publishing. Publishers make covers available to Amazon, Neilsen, etc, because they *want* people to see them. It is 'packaging' - a cover is eye-catching and draws attention to the product. Without an image of the cover, a page on Amazon would look very dull. A cover is 'advertising' too - publishers will happily send an image of a cover to anybody if they think it will somehow leverage sales, or make them look good and willing to support their products. Wherever their covers appear is advertising space they haven't paid for. You are inventing a problem here.
